Technologie informacyjne w warsztacie homilisty

Abstract

The development of information technology has a profound impact on all areas of life without exception. These technologies are tools that enable the user not only to obtain information, select, process and manage it but also pass it on to other people. In the context of the media  society also a preacher of the word of God during Sunday and holiday masses cannot ignore the assistance they offer if he wants to avoid the danger that his efforts will be treated as a kind of an open-air museum. The main thread of the study is therefore an attempt to identify opportunities for the use of  these technologies in the homilist’s skills and tools because they can provide an interesting and profitable alternative to traditional forms of homiletic expertise. Attention is drawn to the fact that in order to use these technologies efficiently and in accordance with the nature of the homily  they should be treated only as a supporting source that provides preaching  material.
